Outside Yuezhou City, under the escort of Zhou Tai, 2,000 people, including Su Qi'an and Xie Cang, left Yuezhou City.

settled Su Qi'an and others in the seventh county city, and after a brief instruct to Su Qi'an, Zhou Tai left with people.

After Zhou Tai left, Xie Cang couldn't help but ask, "Brother Su, I think His Royal Highness is not bad, with him in Yuezhou, even if Xiang Yan holds great power, he shouldn't dare to make some mistakes."

"Why did Brother Su refuse the kindness of His Highness Sixth and insist on leaving, do we really care about the war in Yuezhou?"

Xie Cang's doubts, in Su Qi'an's expectation, he looked at Xie Cang with a smile and shook his head.

"Brother Xie, haven't you seen that Xiang Yan is the number one leader in the war in Yuezhou, even if the Sixth Highness can compete with him, but in terms of transferring and commanding the army, the Sixth Highness still has to obey Xiang Yan's wishes."

"The children of the royal family, even if they are the second and fourth princes of the prince, when they come to the place, in the face of emergencies, they have to obey the command of the most powerful local officials, let alone the sixth highness, the county king."

"In fact, this is only secondary, the most important thing is that we are here to support the war in Yuezhou, not to send people and horses to Xiang Yan, to be the head soldier, and to hand over the military power."

"Brother Xie, you should also see that the people in the Yuezhou Command are all people, not to mention the two factions, and even infighting in wartime, such a command center, if you really want to hand over the military power, the soldiers under our command are not in a hurry to die."

Su Qi'an's explanation, Xie Cang nodded and could understand, Xie Cang has also experienced a lot of big and small battles.

It is too clear that if in wartime, the top is unstable, or even infighting, even if there is the strongest army in hand, it will eventually be wiped out.

Having said that, since Su Qi'an came to Yuezhou, he wouldn't really ignore it.

Whether the war in Yuezhou can be pacified or not will not only have an impact on Yuezhou, but also on the entire three southern states.

If Yuezhou is taken, it will either form a confrontation with the pirates, and the pirates will definitely send people to invade Nanzhou and Jiaozhou in the future.

Su Qi'an didn't want to see that the three states in the south, which were relatively stable, were completely chaotic.

He patted Xie Cang on the shoulder and said, "Although we have left Yuezhou City, in a certain way, it is also good for us, so that we can not be constrained, and we can have a more comprehensive understanding of the current war in Yuezhou.

"In order to win a war, the command must be flexible and mobile, and it must maintain a high degree of sharpness, and it is like this in the rear, and you don't know anything."

Xie Cang deeply agreed with Su Qi'an's remarks and asked, "Then what are we going to do next?"

"The next step is naturally to come forward in person, down to the grassroots, and only at the grassroots level can we know the most authentic news."

"As for the Sixth Highness's side, I have already kicked Zhou Tai up and asked him to give a message to the Sixth Highness, pay more attention to the Yuezhou Sailors, and don't be exploited by pirates."

"As long as the Yuezhou Sailor is not damaged, such a stalemate in Yuezhou will not be able to be broken for a while and a half."

"We can take advantage of this time to have an in-depth understanding and make no follow-up arrangements."

Xie Cang understood Su Qi'an's intentions, stayed in the room for a while, and then left.

Looking at Xie Cang's back, Su Qi had another reason in his heart, and he didn't tell Xie Cang.

The reason why he took people out of Yuezhou and refused the kindness of His Highness Sixth was that he was worried that there would be contradictions with those people gathered in the city and those in the headquarters, and there would definitely be a lot of trouble in the deployment of troops.

The deeper reason is that Su Qi'an will be wary of Su Kang, the Sixth Highness.

Don't look at Su Kang just now, he has been standing on Su Qi'an's side and standing up for him.

But the more this is the case, the more Su Qi'an has doubts about the six princes, not that Su Qi'an spends the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain.

Compared with Gu Hua, although both of them respect Su Qi'an very much and are basically very honest, in addition to being honest, Gu Hua also told Su Qi'an about his ambitions, and even the troops in Nanzhou, as soon as there is a change in the outside world, how he will deal with Nanzhou, which is comparable to top-secret information.

Not in the least

was worried that Su Qi'an would leak secrets, especially during the time he stayed in Nanzhou, so that Su Qi'an could see a real Nanzhou.

There are good and bad, Gu Hua didn't hide it at all, and spread it all out to Su Qi'an.

This is true honesty, and the Sixth Highness is actually the master of Su Qi'an, which is actually out of reality.

And Zhou Tai, who explained to Su Qi'an all the way, is called a respect, even if Su Qi'an is famous, or Zhou Tai is instructed by His Royal Highness the Sixth, but this kind of respect is too much.

made Su Qi'an a little uncomfortable, and for some reason, when getting along with Zhou Tai, Su Qi'an always felt that this person made people feel a little familiar.

It's like I've seen it a long time ago, but where it is and who it is, Su Qi'an can't remember it for a while.

Anyway, the meeting with the Sixth Highness not only did not make Su Qi'an dispel his suspicion of the Six Princes, but it became more and more serious. ap.

Of course, all this is Su Qi'an's feeling, and there is no substantial evidence. Maybe it's because he came along the way, and in just one month, he crossed the three southern states, which brought him some fatigue to his spirit, and maybe he couldn't say.

Leaving the thoughts in his mind behind, Su Qi'an didn't think much about it, lay down, and rested.

On the second day, just after dawn, Su Qi'an got up early, and Xie Cang left the seventh county with more than a dozen veterans, and walked towards the subordinate counties.

This time, Su Qi'an and Xie Cang plan to take a lot of time, at least seven or eight days.

If Zhou Tai had sent someone to ask halfway, or if there was something wrong with the six princes, Su Qi'an would have already instructed Tong Zhan, who stayed in the inn, how to deal with it.

Let's just say that Su Qi'an is too tired and has no plans to see guests, or he just takes Xie Cang around to play and hang out.

Only by truly going deep into the grassroots and getting close to the people can we understand the most real situation.

These words made Xie Cangshen think so, and not long after he followed Su Qi'an to leave the seventh county town, he came to a place called Shuixiang County in a day or two.

This small county town is under the jurisdiction of the seventh county, and it is not very conspicuous among the seven counties, but it is an extremely ordinary small city.

Small towns like Shuixiang County can be seen in Yuezhou.

Water Township County should be in the county, there are many rivers passing through, hence the name Water Township.

It stands to reason that the county towns and county towns with many waterways in the territory are generally very lively.

They are all distribution centers for fishermen's trade, but when you step into the water town, you will find that except for a dozen waterways with no end in sight, there are not many people on the water at all.

Even in the entire county, there are not many people, and from a distance, it looks like an empty city.

The county seat of Shuixiang is not under the jurisdiction of Yuezhou City, and the location in Yuezhou is also very backward, so it is basically impossible to say that it was attacked by pirates.

But this is an empty city, and Xie Cang sent someone to inquire for a long time before he knew the reason.

Because of the start of the war in Yuezhou, an order was suddenly issued from above to recruit young and middle-aged people from all counties, and all of them were transferred to the shipyard in the county town to build military ships.

Even if you can't, you have to go to the shipyard to do logistics, which is not only the case in one county, but basically in other counties.

Looking at the empty street in front of them, Su Qi'an and Xie Cang felt a little uncomfortable.

It's really a waste that the war in Yuezhou is like this, not to mention that compared with Nanzhou, even if it is Jiaozhou, there is no large-scale arrest of strong men like this.

And with so many people, who can guarantee whether they are really building military ships for the public, or for the personal benefit of some people.

This kind of thing, it is not impossible for the war to happen, if there is no personal gain, Su Qi'an really can't figure it out, he arrested all the young and middle-aged people in several counties, and recruited them in a unified manner, I don't know and think that Yuezhou is facing hundreds of thousands of pirates attacking the city.

And the matter of catching strong men, Su Qi'an only saw it in this kind of local county, like the seventh county town where they stayed, not to mention how lively it was, but at least they could see a lot of young and middle-aged people.

But as soon as you leave the county seat and come to the county seat below, the scene is completely different.

Su Qi'an and Xie Cang glanced at each other, and they all saw something unusual in each other's eyes, and the two didn't say anything, in order to verify their judgment

Broken, the two of them took a dozen of their men and swaggered towards the largest street in the city.

These dozen people, even in peacetime, are very conspicuous on the streets, let alone in the war, when all young adults are arrested.

On the entire street, there were only a dozen people from Su Qi'an and Xie Cang, which looked quite obvious.

Before they could walk a third of the way, they were soon surrounded by the sound of hurried footsteps, followed by a deep voice.

"Someone in front, stop me."

Su Qi'an and the others didn't seem to hear it, but they still continued to walk, and after a while, as the footsteps approached, more than 20 people surrounded Su Qi'an and them at once.

The first few people are government officials, and as for the others, they don't look like government officials, but like green-skinned thugs.

The moment they surrounded Su Qi'an and them, the official led by them directly scolded.

"Damn it, let you stop, you're deaf!"

As he spoke, he rolled up his sleeves, and the whip in his hand hit Su Qi'an, and suddenly, a veteran stepped forward, grabbed the whip, and suddenly exerted force, almost making the head of the official fall on his head.

The chief official staggered a few steps before he stood firm, and he carefully looked at the person in front of him.

His eyes flashed, he was able to become their leader, and he had a little ability to observe words and colors, and he could see at a glance that Su Qi'an and Xie Cang, who were being protected behind, were not simple goods.

He didn't get angry, and said coldly, "Who are you, don't you know that the water town is under martial law, and you dare to run around at will, because you don't take the law in your eyes!"

"I'm a person from the eight counties, and I really don't know when I first arrive, so I'll leave now." Xie Cang stepped forward and said.

As soon as these words came out, the head of the requisition was a little surprised, and he secretly said in his heart, "It turned out to be a lifter, no wonder it was so calm, if it was in normal times, maybe it would give you three points, but now hum."

The face of the chief official changed, his face was gloomy, and he said coldly, "Let you go, you say that you are the person of the eight counties, who can prove it, hum, the people of the eight counties came to the seven counties inexplicably, and they are at war again, you are a fool to be the uncle!"

"I seriously suspect that you are spies sent by pirates, if you want to prove your identity, come with me, otherwise, don't blame Uncle Ben for turning his face."
